Don't leave without finding me! You'll find me wearing a green scarf and accidentally walking through KOIN 6's shots.

Hey please don't do this. It makes it impossible for journalists like me to get actual FOIA requests fulfilled. And all you're doing is tying up a handful of random workers.

I'm about to join them for the next executive session, though. Some horrifying news I was just told: there have been no journalists present at city executive sessions in recent memory in Forest Grove. Happy to start being an actual watchdog journalist for this town as much as I am able starting now.

While they did make an error, if you're going to point out an inaccuracy, you should know what you're referring to isn't the headline. It would be more appropriately described as the post copy or some other term.

I should note the larger bills aimed at tackling the biggest issues in Oregon - Housing, education, public health, etc, are also published by our newspaper, typically through some form of wire service. I focus our limited statehouse resources on hyperlocal issues.

SB 57 - Journalism Tax Credit. Creates income tax credit for subscriptions to news media outlets. My first note is "regularly employs staff journalists" could cut out owner-managed outlets that don't technically employ staff. olis.oregonlegislature.gov/liz/2025R1/M...

That's devastating and hilarious. I have to imagine the twins are working at the same company just for these shenanigans.

Ok, I am mistaken, I have $6.32 in the bank, but there's some in Stripe headed this way thanks to our seven new subscribers!

But i do have a wealth of experience in doing this sort of work in western Washington County, an intimate understand of many aspects of Forest Grove, and a lot of people who are jumping on board. I'm excited to once again be pushing back against the doom and gloom that pervades Oregon journalism.

This will in no way change my coverage of the meeting. My newspaper strives for even coverage of all news topics regardless of the heinous font choices made by staff.
